Crimsom rants, part 1:
There's nothing better than after week of doing nothing, then going on your beloved computer, to install the game you pre-ordered last month.
Except you can't, because 1000 adverts will pop-up, blocking it.
Adverts about computer security, lunched with assistance of that bloody Explorer.
Annoying as hell. And of course, all of them were viruses. I won't go into details, but me and my father had to almost nuke the computer to get rid off all that crap. (no, there weren't 1000 viruses. Rather 1000 virus adds + some crap Explorer thought was neccesary to install).
After that, all was well? No, it wasn't.
Because now, Every-time I turn on some of my games (because I'm not sure if this applies to all of them) after a short while, computer minimalizes them and shoves me into the desktop - i.e It doesn't turn off the game, just shoves me into desktop, and I have to bring it up again. It's not particulary serious, but very, very fucking annoying. Especially in middle of battle.
I initially thought that it was a worm, but neither virus scan I did showed any worms. My father still thinks that it's a virus, but now I think that it might be an unspecified software thingy... maybe it's something with the Steam (which I had to install to play my Empire: Total War) or graphic card - since this problem applies so far only to games: perhaps those bloody drivers.
Fucking, God-dammned bloody Hell, can this thing ever end?
Or maybe, it's nature's way of telling me that my three-year old computer needs to go.
Great thing to learn after really screwed week.
RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEE.
Now excuse me, as I'll go away to vent my frustration on some poor, cuddly creatures.
